I'm Already Sick Of This Street Fighter V Stage

Top-tier Street Fighter rivals Daigo and GamerBee face-off in a Street Fighter V exhibition match during the Taipei Game Show, and I couldn't be more bored. New background, please.

We saw it during the teaser. We saw it in the reveal trailer. We saw it in the first exhibition match during the Capcom Cup finals last year. All Capcom is ready to show of the next generation of Street Fighter is Chun-Li and Ryu fighting in this restaurant/street level. I'm fine waiting until there's a little more to show before seeing more.

I'm sure Bruce "GamerBee" Hsiang feels the same way. The 13th ranked player in the world (according to Shoryuken) already has a spotty record against rank 3 Daigo Umehara, and he was forced to play Chun-Li against The Beast's Ryu comfort zone, since Adon isn't in the game yet.

Heck, who knows if Adon will even make it in? We sure don't, because we've got Chun-Li and Ryu and unseen Charlie and that's it. Come on, Capcom. Give us something else. Anything else. I'd take an updated practice grid at this point.
